re: Recruiting Mock Draft 2012 - JOHNNY FOOTBALL!!

Thew holmes thread on this board was the 1st thing I saw and read this morn. I took it as an omen and abandonned my original pick

I think that if he puts some weight on he will do well. Great hands, and the ideal size for a TE in a WC offense. I think once Robinson is gone the passing attempts will go up some.

With my 16th round pick, OBUDan selects:

Cody Waldrop, OL, South Carolina



Hog mollie is what I think they call them. That's Waldrop. He's got one helluva punch. Very strong, brute kid. Moves pretty well, but does look a little stiff doing it. May not have great bend or flexibility. Fires out of his stance well. Oh yeah, he's really mean. Listed at 6'2, 300, his size is adequate. He's listed as a guard now, but he may transition to C. I think that may be where he fits best for me. Waldrop is a tough customer with a host of great offers. FSU, UGA, LSU, NC State.

With the 17th round pick, OBUDan selects:

Brett Bafaro, LB, Oregon



This kid is an athlete. He can really run and he plays with a tenacity. In fact, from his own mouth, "I am so happy that I never have to play offense again. I would much rather be the attacker than the running back. Not a big fan of playing offense. That’s for the glitz and glam guys. I prefer to hit people in the mouth." Love that mentality in a LB. He loves to hit and he brings the necessary speed to the position. In Aiotti's defense, he should thrive, being asked to attack and use his aggressiveness.

One major issue: Baseball. He claims it's his first love, though he may be better suited for football. He will likely play both at Oregon and he even stands a chance at being drafted into MLB in the first-year player draft. Would he go? Maybe. But I'll take my chances. Love his aggressiveness and playmaking mentality, but he's a sound tackler as well. He's also the first D1 prospect ever from his HS.

for my next pick, to build on my ol and get in the running for the all name team
Brandon arcidiacono oc

If I'm going to try and keep up with a center, I need a name to remember, lol

Leave DePietro at OT. I may move Washington to DT and my defense will depend on my next pick

I don't see him on your sheet. Am I missing something.

Sorry. I meant Williams.

ETA: BTW, it'll be a 4-2-5.

I'll take Courtnye Wynn DE Virginia

Leave it as 3 safeties. How they're listed is fine.

Frank "the tank" Taylor, OG Boston College.

Arizona Guard, Beau Boyster
